7 days in Mexico City Itinerary

Breathtakingly large, Mexico City provides a home for almost 9 million people living in nearly 1,700 distinct neighborhoods.

You'll discover tucked-away gems like Murales de Diego Rivera en la Secretaria de Educacion Publica and Ciudad Universitaria. Head to Polanco and Galeria OMRfor some retail therapy. Change things up with these side-trips from Mexico City: Playa La Virgen (in Tequesquitengo) and San Juan Teotihuacan (Piramide de la Serpiente Emplumada & Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5). There's still lots to do: wander the streets of San Angel, examine the collection at Museo del Tiempo Tlalpan, have fun and explore at Memory and Tolerance Museum, and explore the world behind art at Palacio de Bellas Artes.

In November, plan for daily highs up to 26°C, and evening lows to 11°C. Finish your sightseeing early on the 26th (Tue) so you can travel back home.
